Post-AJL 20 ramblings

(hehe.. bear with me!)

1) What's with Zainal's "watchhaaa!" at the beginning of his song 'Gaia' ? Hehehe.. I almost fell out of the couch laughing at him. Zainal stole Hani's trademark!

2) My sis & I made this theory: Cheryl Samad and Ally Iskandar have something going on!! We both just cannot get this scene out of our heads...
(Ally was holding up the CD 20 years of AJL)
Cheryl: Terbalik tu, sayang..

Hehehe.. Imagine that. On prime time live TV! What a way to let the cat out of the bag eh? ;-))

(Although Anne said something along the line of: "Tak kot, she probably calls everyone sayang.." Alah woman, kasik chance laa hehehe.. I like them together!)

3) M. Nasir was in a good mood. Did you see him sing in the 'medley' session? Macam ceria je.. Or maybe he was happy with Mawi's performance that night? Hehe.. Entah lah..
Anyway, now I can't stop singing 'Phoenix Bangkit' in my head..

4) Ning's voice was amazingly good, I love it even more than in her album hehe.. I thought in the album macam nak semput je. Although I still maintain that she can't really hit the high notes.. But gotta admit, her performance was definitely different. She was dressed in her baju kurung (a quite simple one pulak tu) and without any backup singers / troops of dancers. For a while I didn't believe she was only going to wear that baju kurung - I seriously expected she's gonna err.. change costumes to maybe a diva-like evening dress. But that did not happen eh.
The performance? It's ermm... quite un-Ning.

5) Bergenang airmata bila dengar Jac singing 'Wajah'.. I didn't think she needed the children in the background - it was a bit distracting. But I love it still..

6) I was impressed with Hazami's performance and vocals, although I strongly feel that the unbuttoning-shirt-aka-chest-baring act was totally unnecessary. Eheks..

7) I somehow still think that Jac's vocal deserved to win. She hit the high notes without much glitch. And it felt like the song Gemilang was really made for her.. I think only Jac can carry the song wonderfully.
But Mak justified Hazami's winning by saying something like this: "He's a vocal / music teacher laa. That's his advantage over Jac. Probably his vocal control is much better than Jac."
Uhuks.. my Mak.. as always, she's got a point.

8) I cringed watching Dina and Pija singing 'Cinta Datang Lagi'. I blame those bloody outfits!

9) Hats off to Amy Search and Andy Flop Poppy for their wonderful rendition of Fantasia Bulan Madu. I thought Amy looked funky with his formal attire and unrestrained hair!
Andy pulak.. hehe.. ter"kenan" cerita Brokeback Mountain ke hapa? LOLs.. But he somehow managed to pull it off nicely laa (am talking about the outfit here :P )..

10) Still cannot drop the idea that Cheryl Samad and Ally Iskandar have something going on between them. Don't they make an adorable couple? Hehhehe..
